Guitar 2:

*Note: at the point where the chord is -, strum the 
chord once then hammer on the 1 on the  string immediately.
Basically, you'll be strumming the  chord, then lift of the 
string  for one strum, then hold it again. If you listen to
the song, you can kind of tell. 

In matching blue raincoats, our shoes were our showboats
we kicked around
From stairway to station, we made a sensation
with the gadabout crowd
And oh what a bargain, we're two easy targets
For the old men at the off-tracks
Who've paid in palaver and crumpled old dollars
Which we squirreled away 
In our rat-trap hotel by the freeway
                        -    
And we slept in Sundays

Your parents were anxious, your cool was contagious
At the old school
You left without leaving a note for your grieving
Sweet mother while your brother was so cruel
And here in the alleys your spirits were rallied
As you learned quick to make a fast buck
In bathrooms and ballrooms, on dumpsters and heirlooms
We bit our tongues
Sucked our lips into our lungs 'til we were falling
Such was our calling

And here in our hollow we fused like a family
But I will not mourn for you
So take up your makeup and pocket your pills away
We're kings among runaways
On the bus mall
We're down on the bus mall

x2

Among all the urchins and old chinese merchants
Of the old town
We reigned at the pool hall with one iron cue ball
And we never let the bastards get us down
And we laughed off the quick tricks, the old men with limp dicks
On the colonnades of the waterfront park
As four in the morning came on cold and boring
We huddled close
In the bus stop enclosure enfolding
                          -
Our hands tightly holding

But here in our hollow we fused like a family
But I will not mourn for you
So take up your makeup and pocket your pills away
We're kings among runaways
On the bus mall
We're down on the bus mall
We're down on the bus mall (At this point, Guitar 2 comes in with Intro riff)
Down on the bus mall
Ohhhh
